A Practical Guide to English Grammar

Features

• It includes almost all the grammatical items necessary for an average student.
• In order to give the learner a real feel of the language, the book follows the descriptive approach, i.e. examples are given first followed by rules.
• Discussions and elaborations of rules have been kept to a bare minimum to avoid unnecessary strain on the learner’s mind.
• Some examples have been worked out in each chapter before giving exercises. The aim here is to present a consolidated picture of the whole chapter at one place, and also to allow the learners to revise and master the whole chapter.
• A good deal of graded exercises have been given for all types of learners. Elementary, intermediate and advanced exercises on each chapter provide plenty of opportunities for them to learn the grammatical items thoroughly and well.
• An effort has been made to give exercises not only in isolated sentences but also in contexts. Such exercises should enable students to drill and practise English in meaningful and life-like situations.
